sheo Posted November 30, 2018 (edited) True gentleman (let alone a secret agent) never misses the train. This diorama recreates the train chase scene from the James Bond movie «Skyfall». It was made for the Lego Ideas contest «Build Something Spectacular from the World of 007». The motion blur effect in the photos was achieved using practical effects. The main roles in this scene are played by several vehicles built in 1:30 scale: 1. Land Rover Defender 110 Double Cab pickup; 2. Volkswagen Beetle (2012 version); 3. Caterpillar 320 excavator (2018 version). Thank you for your attention! Edited October 28, 2019 by sheo Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Johnny1360 Posted November 30, 2018 Looks really good, some excellent vehicles just curious though, what is holding those quarter round pieces onto the fenders, on the Land Rover? I also like the way the blue car has been smashed by the Track Hoe, which I would enjoy replicating as well. Do those tracks actually work? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
koalayummies Posted November 30, 2018 Fantastic build and scene recreation, its simply perfection! This is several awesome MOCs inside an MOC. The excavator and train cars are especially realistic and the whole thing is fun to look at. Most excellent work. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I fixed the tracks for stability, but they surely can roll. 15 hours ago, koalayummies said: Fantastic build and scene recreation, its simply perfection! This is several awesome MOCs inside an MOC.

Hollander Posted December 6, 2018 Amazing job! I love scale models and I like the Land Rover and the excavator in particular (especially the excavator! ) One question though, you mentioned you created the motion blur effect with practical effects? So this means you did not add these effects digitally, right? So how did you create it? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
mpj Posted December 7, 2018 Great job! Looking at the excavator I see that the first images "in motion" have been mirrored. Also in the movie are they mirrored? What to you mean with "The motion blur effect in the photos was achieved using practical effects" ? Again, many compliments! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The train and the pickup were actually moving when I took the photos. Unfortunately I only had time to build a very simple setup, which you can see here. 2 hours ago, mpj said: Looking at the excavator I see that the first images "in motion" have been mirrored.
